Product Overview
Philips Dynalite introduces Antumbra Panel Series that has the most unique features and has
revolutionized the way a user interacts with the user interface. Antumbra redefines the preconceptions of what a user interface keypad or panel can be and the way the user can intuitively
interact with it to control the lighting system.
Antumbra Panel series has been designed to suit both residential and commercial markets. The
Antumbra Panel series consists of the following types of panels:
•
Antumbra Button
•
Antumbra Display
•
Antumbra Touch
Each button on the Antumbra panel can be configured using the EnvisionProject commissioning
software to perform a vast range of functions.
The contemporary design of Antumbra panel incorporates multiple sensors that are used to
perform advance functions like light sensing and temperature sensing.
The Antumbra Button panel consists of three sensors.
Proximity sensor
The Proximity sensor utilizes capacitive field effect technology to detect a user when the user
approaches the panel and activates a light wash onto the wall around the panel welcoming the
user towards the panel.
Ambient light sensor
The Ambient light sensor senses the ambient light condition around the panel and can be used
to automatically adjust the LED and light wash brightness of the panel.
Temperature sensor
The temperature sensor is used to determine the temperature of the room where the panel is
mounted.
The Antumbra Panel series is one of the most flexible user interface solution available in the
market. The advanced flexibility is from the panel being divided into two components namely
DyNet Antumbra Communication Module and Antumbra Application Module. The two
components come together to form the solution for the Antumbra Panel series.

Antumbra Button Panel
The Antumbra Button Panel has a RS485 DyNet serial port and is classified as Class 2 Safety
Extra Low Voltage device.
The Antumbra Button panel is available in White, Silver and Magnesium button finishes.
To complement these button finishes, the rim finishes for the buttons are available in White,
Magnesium, Chrome and Aluminium providing a wide range of décor matching possibilities. It is
available in Europe (EU) and North American (NA) styles.

Lightwash Effect
The Antumbra Panel responds to a person’s presence with a welcoming ring of light around it to
indicate the panel’s location in low light environments. A built-in light level sensor brings on the
light to a comfortable level sensing the light in the surroundings. The lightwash effect can be
disabled through EnvisionProject software. The lightwash effect is displayed as shown in the
figure below:
Figure 4 - Antumbra Panel with Light-Wash effect
LED Indicators
Programmable indicators appear on the Antumbra Panel as the user approaches the panel,
showing the location of configured buttons on the panel. As the user moves away the LED
indicators fade and become invisible on the panel. The brightness of these indicators can be
configured using the EnvisionProject commissioning software.

Structure of Antumbra Button Panel
Figure 6 - Application Module-Front View
The Antumbra Button Panel Application Module unit is made up of 6 configurable buttons, 6
LED indicators, 6 back light LEDs, temperature sensor, daylight sensor and a proximity sensor.
All the configurable buttons have an Enable and Disable catch that can be used to enable/disable
the tactile feel of the buttons on the panel.
The panel can be mounted in portrait and landscape orientations. Ensure the holes on the rim
are located at the bottom of the panel for easy air flow that help in temperature sensing. Refer
to the Application Module Front View image to mount the panel in the right orientation. The
arrows indicate the side that has to be at the top when the panel is mounted.

Product Architecture
The Antumbra panel product is made up two components namely the Application Module and
Communication Module. These two components come together to form the Antumbra panel.
Figure 7 - Product Architecture of Antumbra Button
Application Module
The Application Module is made of protective cover, buttons, rim, application unit and the
mounting plate. The buttons and rims in the Antumbra Button panel come in different colours
and finishes. The button is available in White, Silver and Magnesium and the rim is available in
White, Magnesium, Chrome and Aluminium.
The rim has built-in ventilation for fast acting response from the temperature sensor.
The Application unit contains all the sensor devices and the LEDs. It includes the proximity
sensor, the day light sensor and the temperature sensor. The LEDs are used to provide
backlight to the configured buttons on the panel. This unit also produces the light wash effect
around the panel. All the parts of the Antumbra Button panel plug into the application unit.

Communication Module
The DyNet communication module is common across all the Antumbra Panel series. It contains
all the logical and network functions that are used to communicate in a DyNet environment.
Figure 8 - DyNet Antumbra Comms Module
The communications module contains all the settings of the panel and manages the
communication to the DyNet network.
The communication module can be pre-programmed using the EnvisionProject commissioning
software without the application module. For example, for hotel room projects where the
number of different panel configurations are known, the same software settings can be
programmed on all the Comms Modules and the installer while installation has to only configure
it to the required area. It consists of 6 DIP switches that can be used to make large scale project
commissioning simple.
Also the front of the Comms Module, has a small white space that can be used by the installer
to mark notes on the module.
The service switch can be used to test the network. A long press resets the Comms Module
and a short press sends a sign-on message on to the DyNet network.

Installation recommendations for the Antumbra Panel
False triggering of the Proximity Sensor can be prevented by ensuring the following points are
considered during installation:
•
Surrounding cables are at a minimum distance of 25-30cm away from the panel.
•
The first 30cm of the cable connected to the panel is fixed. The cable should not move.
•
The preferable cable exit after connection to the terminal block is towards the bottom
of the panel as it does not have the proximity sensing pad
•
No metal objects exist within the vicinity of 0.3m radius from the panel as it may affect
the proximity sensing operation and cause false triggering

Once the mounting bracket is mounted plug the five-way network socket into the mounted
Communications module.
The whole panel assembly can be pushed into the mounting bracket. Locate and fix the
application base to the mounting bracket using the two smaller screws through the mounting
holes. Recheck the level of the panel and adjust if required.
Individual buttons can be disabled if a particular panel location does not require all six buttons
to be used. By using the blue switches and buttons, mechanical action can be switched on or off.
In ‘off’ position
In ‘on’ position
Once the buttons disable and enables have been set, the final buttons can be clicked in. The
order of buttons being mounted is not important. When mounting the buttons, first click in the
centre clips of the button to the application base, then make sure the button guides line up
within the application base too. The end result should be a smooth button action.

Test each of the enabled buttons for a positive click when pressed. If any enabled button does
not have a positive click when pressed, check for obstructions or the disable switch being set
incorrectly.
